‘Towards the Bridge of Orchy from the West Highland Way, October’

This is one of the paintings that will be on display in my studio this weekend as part of the WASPS Open Studios Weekend.

The painting is based on a view we had just under a year ago as we returned from a walk on Ben Inverveigh and shows the Bridge of Orchy Hills bathed briefly in late afternoon sun. The colours of the grass and trees were really vivid for a few minutes. The painting is done using thick traditional oil colour, making for an interesting tactile and visual piece.

I hope you can get along to the Courtyard Studios this coming weekend.
